Abstract

The phenomenon of open unemployment in Indonesia is an important issue that needs serious attention, especially when the economy is growing steadily. While economic growth should create more jobs, there are challenges such as a mismatch between the education graduates receive and the needs of the job market, as well as more investment going into sectors that do not absorb much labor. This study aims to understand the factors that influence the unemployment rate in Indonesia, by looking at the influence of economic factors such as economic growth, the number of college graduates, investment, population growth, and minimum wage. Using data from 2017 to 2023 across 34 provinces and the panel data analysis method, this study finds that economic growth and population growth have a significant effect on unemployment, while the number of college graduates, investment, and minimum wage show no significant effect. The findings suggest the importance of creating equitable economic growth and improving the matching of education with labor market needs.

Abstract

Pisak Village, as one of the villages on the Indonesia-Malaysia border, has great potential as a vegetable producer for domestic and cross-border markets. Vegetable farmers in Pisak Village face real problems in the form of high dependence on middlemen in marketing their crops, resulting in a weak position for farmers and unprofitable selling prices. Furthermore, uncontrolled price pressures, limited access to cross-border markets in Malaysia, a lack of farmer economic institutions, and poor post-harvest infrastructure make it difficult for farmers to maintain stable, sustainable incomes. This Community Service (PkM) activity aims to improve farmers' bargaining position by conducting outreach training on product processing and courage-based promotion. Through product processing, farmers are expected to increase the added value of their agricultural products, while courageous promotion is expected to open wider market access. Implemented through an interactive socialization and discussion approach, this PkM activity not only focuses on improving farmers' technical skills but also on strengthening market access and economic institutions, thereby creating independence and economic sustainability for the Pisak Village community in the border region.
